LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CES 2014 -- Ecrio further consolidates its position as the de facto supplier of IMS/VoLTE certified client software for 4G/LTE devices. Multiple commercial integrations of its FlexIMS™ Architecture powering Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and Rich Communication Suite (RCS) are being deployed across device chipsets and platforms.

Ecrio announces the general availability of its FlexIMS-based VoLTE, Video Calling and RCS client software with the unique ability to allow individual services to be distributed between modem processors and application processors. The options provided by FlexIMS to distribute real time communication services among processors is an industry-first, single architecture for enabling the full span of VoLTE device endpoints.
